Discover the Hidden Art of Kinnaree
The name Kinnaree comes from Thai mythology.
A Kinnaree is a celestial being — half woman, half bird — known for her grace, beauty, and gentle spirit. She is believed to live in the mythical Himmapan Forest, a magical realm where nature, art, and imagination exist in harmony.
This spirit of harmony inspires Kinnaree by Vanessa WU.
It reflects the balance we seek in everything we create — the harmony of flavors in our cuisine, the warmth of Thai hospitality, and the artistic atmosphere surrounding the dining experience.
Inspired by the serenity of the Himmapan Forest, Kinnaree is designed to create a calm and charming atmosphere, where guests can relax and enjoy Thai cuisine in a space that feels both peaceful and inspiring.
At Kinnaree, every element comes together in balance — like a story unfolding between nature, culture, and taste.
The Artistic Vision of Peerapach Puboonkong
Behind the artistic atmosphere of Kinnaree by Vanessa WU stands the vision of Peerapach Puboonkong, the artist and designer who has quietly shaped the restaurant’s visual world since its beginning.
For Peerapach, art is a language of emotion, imagination, and cultural memory. At Kinnaree, his work transforms the space into more than a restaurant — a place where art and cuisine exist in harmony.
Inspired by Thai mythology, nature, and the mystical beauty of the Himmapan Forest, his creations blend traditional imagination with contemporary expression. Through sculptural installations, handcrafted details, and thoughtful spatial design, each artwork reveals another layer of Kinnaree’s story.
For nearly two decades, these works have lived quietly within the restaurant — hidden in plain sight, waiting to be discovered.
From artistic installations to the visual presentation of the dishes, Peerapach’s influence shapes Kinnaree through both space and plate, reflecting his belief in harmony between creativity and craftsmanship.
I have dedicated myself to bringing my original vision to life — the vision you can see today.
— Peerapach Puboonkong
Through his work, Kinnaree invites guests to experience a subtle dialogue between art, culture, and imagination.
